A coalition of more than 230 environmental groups has demanded a national moratorium on new datacenters in the US, the latest salvo in a growing backlash to a booming artificial intelligence industry that has been blamed for escalating electricity bills and worsening the climate crisis.
The green groups, including Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, Food & Water Watch and dozens of local organizations, have urged members of Congress to halt the proliferation of energy-hungry datacenters, accusing them of causing planet-heating emissions, sucking up vast amounts of water and exacerbating electricity bill increases that have hit Americans this year.

There’s no way any country with the ability isn’t participating in the race to AGI, so good luck with that.

Halting US data centers will just mean they’ll build them elsewhere, probably somewhere with a dirtier grid. They should instead just use their energy to keep pushing for green energy.

Most of the liberal fucks in california and new York don’t care about climate change anymore because they are making money in the stock market. Once that’s done they will be back to having us suck on paper straws.
Liberals are not different than conservatives. In their own way they are all selfish, self-centered assholes.
